There was much to admire about PAYBACKTHEMONEY's eye-catching debut on the grass last month where he was completely unfancied yet overcame many issues to produce a fine display in a competitive field. He would have come on appreciably from the performance and should make natural improvement. Of course the worry is how he will shape on this surface. The Cape visitor MOSCHINO also had little go his way but still ran on late on his creditable local debut over a similar distance on the turf three weeks ago. Of course he was returning from a 21 weeks rest so will certainly strip fitter and should make further progress. The injury plagued CASSIUS COLT will also be fit after his fair comeback run following a 30 weeks break. He has produced his career best efforts on this surface and is rather interestingly his jockey's solitary ride on the day.
